Which is better for smoking brisket?

The Timberline XL holds 22 lb of pellets and has 1,320 sq in of cooking area, so it suits long, large cooks. The Coyote's 12 lb hopper means more refills on a 12-hour smoke.

The Coyote C2P lists a 700 F max temperature. The Timberline XL specs do not state a max temperature, but it adds an induction cooktop for high-heat searing.

Can I put the Coyote in an outdoor kitchen?

Yes. It is a built-in unit, 27 in deep and 31 in high, and needs a 120 V outlet. The Timberline XL is freestanding and cannot be built in.

Is the Timberline XL worth the price?

At $3,224.99 at Best Buy as of November 8, 2026, you pay for size, app control, wireless probes and the induction cooktop. If you only need a built-in stainless grill, the Coyote covers that for less if its price holds.

Which is easier to clean?

The Timberline XL has an ash catcher and collects grease and ash in one place. The Coyote listing does not describe an ash catcher.
